Tedder Posted October 1, 2013 Report Posted October 1, 2013 No disrespect ment in my post. The point was that there are to many that believe they (the PR's) hold all the cards when that just isn't the case. Quote
n2otoofast4u Posted October 1, 2013 Report Posted October 1, 2013 I have raced with (against whatever you want to call it) many times. I can tell you for sure, I have first hand experience around the green bike, as well as super light. Im not saying that they ALL have their shiat together, but of the match ups that are posted I think the ricans have all covered. Now if you want to go back in history, superlight held the record for the spread twin unlimited class with a 3.28. The turbo Scimi beat that record last time I was in Glibert with it a few years back with a 3.26. The ricans have been out for blood trying to get that record back since, including a 3.2? (I forget) off the trailer in Gilbert the following year, and have been 3.2xxxx since. Although I KNOW that Brians bike is capable of a number lower than the existing 26 Im not sure he (or the bike) are in that form YET. The raptors. I was shooting from the hip on that one. (more so just to get a rise out of Bret) I'm not sure what the Bennets are rolling but Ive been around that green bike plenty, and know what its capable of My post wasn't a run scared post at all. Just real world thought and experience of what I see from the match ups that were laid out. 1 Quote

J-Madd Posted October 1, 2013 Report Posted October 1, 2013 What is the green bike? Arlos triple? They bought PPS triple also. Quote
n2otoofast4u Posted October 1, 2013 Report Posted October 1, 2013 What is the green bike? Arlos triple? They bought PPS triple also. Yes its Arlos old triple. The way I understand is that on PR group or team bought one, and a different group or team bought the other. Quote

Not trying to open an argument but let me say that the limiting factor has been time and money, not skill or tuning Quote
fappy'97 Posted October 5, 2013 Report Posted October 5, 2013 No faith? Not trying to open an argument but let me say that the limiting factor has been time and money, not skill or tuning Didn't it run .20's in '09? Quote
Stimbert Posted October 5, 2013 Report Posted October 5, 2013 It went a .26 down south, the best it went in mi was a .41 with 125lb Donny on it. I went .51 at PHILS weighing 175lbs.. And only 18lbs of boost Quote
brettjsand2000 Posted October 5, 2013 Author Report Posted October 5, 2013 So who else is going? Obviously from what Green says, Team USA needs helps.....who else is coming? Quote
J-Madd Posted October 6, 2013 Report Posted October 6, 2013 We won't make it. We don't run nitrous anyway, and they run LOTS of it on their twins. Not sure about the triples. Quote
SlowerThanYou Posted October 6, 2013 Report Posted October 6, 2013 Re: November Race [Re: Nitrobaby] Nitrobaby Site Admin Registered: 08/08/11 Posts: 262 Loc: Northeast Louisiana Sand Drags Will let everyone know as soon as I can.....I'm wanted in arizona and peurto rico in november also....trying to acomidate everyone and keep work going also.....thanks There has been some talk of a Nov. race. According to one PR guy on FB, it's going to happen in PR. I'm curious to see if the race does happen. How many will ship their stuff over to PR. Always plenty of BS talk when PR has to come to the US & prove themselves. I have yet to here about the US BS talker's going to PR & proving themselves. 1 Quote
brettjsand2000 Posted October 6, 2013 Author Report Posted October 6, 2013 I was contacted about a race in PR the weekend before the NC race. Are to coming to NC? Quote
Stimbert Posted October 6, 2013 Report Posted October 6, 2013 I'd be more than happy to go race out of the country if I had an unlimited pharmaceutical tech bank account. I have nothing to prove, they called the us guys out. If they want to "prove themselves" (whatever that means) then they can come to us. Every other day I hear more rumors of this race happening then not happening, I'd say there's a 30% chance I'll be going. The only factor being no money to go, which I told them would be an issue when they first asked. Quote
